Draft genome sequences of Listeria monocytogenes strains from human listeriosis in Sweden harboring premature stop codons in the virulence determinant inlA

Premature stop codons in the internalin virulence determinant inlA are common in serotype 1/2a Listeria monocytogenes from food/food processing environments but rare among human clinical isolates. Here, we report the genome sequences of serotype 1/2a (STs 121 and 3258) human listeriosis isolates from Sweden harboring such mutations in inlA.
